philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 08/02/2013 10:26 am Well then! Looks like it's 33.1-Z.19. Have you even seen one of these before? Looks to be a pretty rare variety. http://stacksbowers.com/auctions/Au...LotID=356616 Edited by philadelphian 08/02/2013 10:33 am Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 08/02/2013 2:09 pm That seems to match up pretty well. R5+..cool! Picked it up at the Philly ANA show unattributed (as a lot of these are)in the ANACS holder. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 08/02/2013 2:25 pm Good for you. Did the granularity get it a details grade? And by the way, what happened to that 1776 "Machins Mills" from June 25? Edited by philadelphian 08/03/2013 2:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 08/02/2013 7:17 pm Yeah, it is slightly corroded but not bad. I agree with the grade of mid-VF details. That thread on the Machin's should still be there..maybe on page 2 or 3. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 08/03/2013 09:46 am Yeah the thread on the Machins is there, but no conclusions from after you got the coin in hand. So what did the attribution turn out to be? Report this Post to the Staff
vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 08/03/2013 6:20 pm Don't know. I have to get my hands on a better Machins resource. I'll be at the Chicago show, hope to pick something up there. In the mean time, I just picked up a 1747 Vlack 1-47 at a decent negotiated price. Pretty hard Machins to come by so I jumped on it. I'll get that one up soon. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
